I have a mate with triplets -all girls- he’s busy as a hive of bees
Surprised he still sports a full head of hair (I’d be on my knees)

He says three is tough even as they’re all bright sparks
Recently one came home from school- wearing another kid’s bite marks!

Apparently this happened while the girls were at pre-school
Some crazy child up and decided it was time to lose her cool

Turns out the parents of ‘Bitey Kid’ are also an unusual pair
They say the mother is hard to please, but the dad is rather fair

Bitey’s Mum lets it be known to all that her kids are the best
Meanwhile the other parents quickly nicknamed her ‘the dry wind of the west’

By all accounts she’s very loud and around the edges a tad rough
While the Dad is rather handsome and resembles Hasselhoff

My mate wonders what type of parents would raise a child that bites?
(they must take after their mother who’s reputedly a champion of bar fights)

While the Dad is a real charmer and, word is, quite fit
This deranged child’s mother come off aloof and lacking in quick wit

But by the end of this strange tale my mate winked and flashed me a wry smile
Seems all was not as it seems… seems Bitey is, in fact, HIS child!
